The flames are desperate to keep their home grown talent and have more cap space than virtually anyone in the league.

I really don’t want Conroy to make the mistake Treliving did nickel-and-diming the young star players into shorter contracts (Gaudreau, Tkachuk, Monahan). Make it 8 years.

My guess would be something like this:

Zary: 8 years - $7.5 million AAV
Coronato: 8 years - $7.5 million AAV
Wolf: 8 years - $8.0 million AAV
You want to give a player with 13 career goals a $60 million dollar contract?

This is nuts
